The clearance was effected at last; the Stryver arrears were handsomely fetched up; everything was got rid of until November should come with its fogs atmospheric, and fogs legal, and bring grist to the mill again. Sydney was none the livelier and none the soberer for so much application. It had taken a deal of extra wet-towelling to pull him through the night; a correspondingly extra quantity of wine had preceded the towelling; and he was in a very damaged condition, as he now pulled his turban off and threw it into the basin in which he had steeped it at intervals for the last six hours. “Are you mixing that other bowl of punch?” said Stryver the portly, with his hands in his waistband, glancing round from the sofa where he lay on his back. “I am.” A Tale of Two Cities: Book 2, Chapter 11 by Charles Dickens “Now, look here!

  • A Tale of Two Cities
    A Tale of Two Cities CHARLES DICKENS A Tale of Two Cities is set before and during the French Revolution, and examines the harsh con- 1859 ditions and brutal realities of life during this difficult time. While the conditions before the revolution were deplorable, things were far from ideal afterward as the violence toward, and oppression of, one class was reversed once the poor overthrew the nobility. In the end, the only glimmer of hope comes with the heroic sacrifice of Sydney Carton, as he gives his life for the good of others. According to Dickens’s Preface, the inspira- tion for the story came from two sources. The first was Wilkie Collins’s play The Frozen Deep, in which two rivals unknowingly embark on the same doomed Arctic expedition, and one ends up dying to save his rival. The second was Thomas Carlyle’s The French Revolution: A History. The details in the portions of A Tale of Two Cities that take place in France closely echo Carlyle’s work, and critics have noted that Carlyle’s account seems to be Dickens’s only source of historical information. One of the most-discussed aspects of A Tale of Two Cities is the ambivalence with which Dickens seems to regard the revolution and the revolutionaries. Although he clearly under- stands why the French people rose up to over- throw their government and seize power for themselves, he seems troubled by the manner in which this occurred.

  • Monsters Most Dreadful: Institutions in a Tale of Two Cities
    Monsters Most Dreadful: Institutions in A Tale of Two Cities by Natalie Kopp, Westerville South High School Resurrection, in a variety of forms, arises as a central motif throughout Charles Dickens’ A Tale of Two Cities. Repeatedly, individuals are “recalled to life” by someone who loves them—Lucie Manette brings her father back after he has been “buried alive for eighteen years” (20); she gives testimony that helps save her husband-to-be from almost certain death by the English courts; Sydney Carton gives his life to save Lucie’s family, resurrecting them; and, in turn, Lucie’s family recalls Carton to life through their memories for years to come. Examples abound of loving individuals who, in recalling and being recalled, create a legacy for themselves and their principles. But what about the powerful institutions that ensnare the lives of all these individuals? What ensures their longevity? Writing the novel in a time of political unrest and fear of revolution in England (just a decade after the European revolutions of 1848), Dickens devotes considerable detail to creating portraits of such institutions as the French aristocracy, the new French Republic, the British and French court systems, and Tellson’s Bank. Through these portrayals, he sends a message to his country and to future societies about the fate of such institutions: A group or institution that depersonalizes and does not respect individuals will ultimately die out, while a group that honors such basic human virtues as empathy, love, and compassion will live on. Individual virtues can be quite easily overshadowed by group dynamics, but Dickens makes it clear that love and empathy are so essential to the human spirit that, so long as there are individuals who will stand up for these virtues, no group or society can sustain itself without them.

  • A TALE of TWO CITIES by Charles Dickens
    A TALE OF TWO CITIES by Charles Dickens THE AUTHOR Charles Dickens (1812-1870) was the second of eight children in a family plagued by debt. When he was twelve, his father was thrown into debtors’ prison, and Charles was forced to quit school and work in a shoe-dye factory. These early experiences gave him a sympathy for the poor and downtrodden, along with an acute sense of social justice. At the age of fifteen, he became a clerk in a law firm, and later worked as a newspaper reporter. He published his first fiction in 1836 - a series of character sketches called Sketches by Boz. The work was well-received, but its reception was nothing compared to the international acclaim he received with the publication of The Pickwick Papers in the following year. After this early blush of success, Dickens took on the job as editor of Bentley’s Miscellany, a literary magazine in which a number of his early works were serialized, including Oliver Twist (1837-9) and Nicholas Nickleby (1838-9). He left to begin his own literary magazine, Master Humphrey’s Clock, in 1840, and over the next ten years published many of his most famous novels in serial form, including The Old Curiosity Shop (1840-1), A Christmas Carol (1844), and David Copperfield (1849-50), perhaps the most autobiographical of all his novels. Other works were serialized in Household Words between 1850 and 1859, which was then succeeded by All the Year Round, which he edited until his death in 1870, publishing such novels as A Tale of Two Cities (1859), Great Expectations (1860-1), and Our Mutual Friend (1864-5).
